    Use IF formula based on choice in another cell

    I have a drop down choice in (D7) the Choices are "A/B - L/R" OR "N/S - E/W"
    In (C15) I have the formula

    =IF(B15>0,"Above","Below")

    I need to change it to look @ cell (D7) and if they have chosen "A/B - L/R" then the existing formula is correct but if they have selected "N/S - E/W" then I need to use

    =IF(B15>0,"North","South")

    Thanks for your help

    Hi there.

    A picture is worth 1,000 words. An Excel sheet is worth 1,000 pictures.

    Please read the yellow banner at the top of the screen. Act on its guidelines and post a SMALL sample sheet.
